This is a song from my favorite album called Killing Sin by Timothy Brindle

Verse 1:I’ve got a whole lot to say about time/So now I’m a shout mine because it’s about time/God created time so He’s able to end it/Plus He entered time and came and descended/But He’s not ever bound by time/He’s eternally perfect so He’s never out His prime/God always existed even with no time/Then He spoke things into existence in no time/In His divine mind He decreed a time line/To display His glory to creatures and said, “Time’s mine.”/So time or fate is not the sovereign/In fact time is ruled by God the Father/Some say time will tell but actually it can’t/Because He’s already said what will happen in advance/He’s the Lord of time-this rhymes is worshiping/He ain’t serving time- time is serving Him/See time is a space given by God in His kindness and grace/As He’s shining His face/Yet it’s kind of funny-some say time is money/But time’s more precious than money, wine, or honey/Because we’re spending time- there’s no refunds/We’ll never see it again- there’s no reruns/If you lost your hummer it’s possible to cop another/But time is something we cannot recover/Yet I’m baffled/How some think they can preserve time inside of a time capsule/But since the fall of man/The sands of time are turning us all back into salty sand/But our souls have an eternal destination/So use your time to make sure the best is taken/It’s either in preparation to better praise Him/Or further steps toward eternal separation.Verse 2:On Wall Street a rich dude snorts lines/His morning devotion is the New York Times/And Time magazine at times it seems/Time flies as if time had some wings/But this is irony right/While most spend the time of their life trying to have the time of their life/Thinking lies are really true/If you’re busy killing time the truth is time is killing you/But you’re too cool- you love to take your time/You fool- God can come and take your time/Then He’ll search your mind and surely find your works are slime/Once sin’s an eternal prime it takes eternity to serve the time/Reject Him and regret how your spurned this rhyme/You offended the Divine/In hell, like Michael Jackson, You’ll remember the time/Once your time is up you blasphemer/You can’t travel back with a flux capacitor/It’s such a massacre when Christ’s popping the sky/You’ll want to go back in time like Marty McFly/But you sharply despised Christ kindness my friend/And He gave you a lifetime to repent/So next time you’re asking what time is it/Know Christ can come to give times final tick/Your eternity hangs on what you do with time/So use it to trust the Savior of human kind/Whose more than somebody/And at the right time Jesus Christ died for the ungodly/So when the fullness of time came the Ruler of time came/To pull us from prides chain/The time is fulfilled- His kingdom is at hand/So repent and believe and come cling onto the Lamb.Verse 3:If you live to be 90 there’s an absurdity/Even that’s a blink compared to eternity/Christians most of the time we don’t make the most of our time/So let’s refocus on Jehovah’s design/Yet I’m convicted/By how much of my time’s been wicked even since I’ve been Christian/But time is ticking and life is a vapor/So delight and then savor Christ who is our Savior/Please read Ephesians 5: 16 and you’ll find we need to be redeeming the time/Because we’ll give an account of what we did or didn’t do with our time/Don’t just sit in the house/Yeah Christ blood assures securely/But our use of time affects our rewards and glory/To the vine we’re attached/So let’s bear fruit and work overtime like making time and a half/Excuse me teens-it’s useless to be glued as fiends/To the TV and computer screen/No time for folly and gossip and small is the profit/If spending all day at the malls we are shopping/No time to waste playing playstation or taking vacations/Today is the day of salvation/For unsaved pagans don’t waste a moment/Please take time to share the great atonement/Don’t spend it sinning-you’ll dead that syndrome/Instead invest time in how to spread the kingdom/Instead of serving time/Let’s spend time serving the needs of others- and His worth will shine/And since we can’t rewind a minute/Be careful to kill sin because there’s no time for sinning/So avoid sins poison and disaster/And in the end we’ll enter in the joy of our master.
